DISASSEMBLE THE TEXTS

Cross-sectional Journeys of Cositas with Cinthya García Leyva

Is there such a thing as a still, static exhibition?

During this tour with the researcher and cultural manager Cinthya García Leyva, the room texts, the ambient sounds and the music behind the pieces of the Cositas exhibition will be thought of as artifacts and waste that can be rearranged to find internal connections within the rooms.

Seeking to do practical exercises that link the text with the sound, and the visual with the verbal, they will put themselves at the center of looking and listening: the cards, the subtitles, the voices, the lights, the noises and the residues that emerge. of the objects and installations that make up the exhibition, to take a verbivocovisual tour and explore the exhibition together.

The Cross-sectional Journeys are visits to the Arte Abierto exhibitions with guests from various areas beyond art, to expand the themes and points of reference from other perspectives, perspectives, languages and disciplines.
